How the polar cold continues in Buenos Aires
Frost and dry air in much of the country
The polar air mass also affects provinces in central and northern Argentina, where weak to moderate frosts continue.
Buenos Aires, Córdoba, Santa Fe, Entre Ríos, Mendoza, and San Luis are among the areas most impacted by the temperature drop.
As meteorologist Leonardo De Benedictis explained, the predominance of dry air at low levels of the atmosphere favors stability and reduces the chances of precipitation.

What are the chances of snow in Buenos Aires
Although the extreme cold has reignited speculation about possible snowfall in the AMBA, current weather models do not show favorable conditions for the phenomenon to occur.
For it to snow in Buenos Aires, a combination of cold air at the surface and at altitude is needed, along with sufficient humidity to generate frozen precipitation.
